Sex dolls the latest in China’s sharing economy – choose from Hong Kong, Korean, Chinese, Russian or Wonder Woman
Dolls are reserved via an app that allows hirers to select clothing and hair styles, add-ons such as whips and handcuffs, and to request they come ‘warmed up’; for an extra charge they will make sounds when touched
China has shared bikes, umbrellas, and basketballs, but one company is taking the country’s love affair with the “sharing economy” to an erotic extreme with a line of rentable sex dolls.
Touch, a Chinese sex-products retailer, on Thursday launched its “Shared Girlfriend” service in Beijing, featuring Chinese, Russian, Korean, and Hong Kong versions, as well as an Amazon-like “Wonder Woman” who comes armed with sword and shield.

Like many of China’s pioneering shared-economy products, the life-size silicon seductresses are reserved via a phone app for up to a week a time.
Touch, which is based in the southeastern city of Xiamen, then delivers them to customers who can also preselect different clothing outfits and hair styles, plus accoutrements like handcuffs and whips.
Clients can even have their date “warmed up” before delivery and, for an extra fee, have them equipped with a device that voices various sounds when manhandled.
